Yes it is a horrendous price and I'm sure we could have done it much cheaper but this is probably a "one-off" for us, having rented a house for seven months and we just counted the trip down as part of it. We did use booking.com for the hotels and they are really good. It also means that we will have our car with us for the duration, whereas long-term renting of a car was expensive. Really looking forward to coming now - we came for a week in February, to choose a house, and it was so very lovely seeing Stoupa in the winter.

we did this trip a few years ago kept off motorways did scenic route did not book hotels but stayed in some amazing places just booked chunnel and ferry Ancona to Patras.we called it our European adventure stayed 2 months in Ag Dimitrious had great time
